You've not tasted all my cookin'

.
Everybody loves a good cook. But in today's world of technology, being a good is not rocket science. All one needs is the right recipe, which all good cooks are anxious to share. The key is selecting the right recipe. And picking the wrong one leads to disaster.

So, here's how you do it. Start with the Chef who is offering the recipe. For example, if you're wanting an apple pie, you probably might not look seriously at an Asian chef. Or if you're craving spaghetti, don't look in a Cajun cookbook. Next look at the ingredients and the spices in particular that you think will tickle your taste buds. In other words, if your wanting a succulent steak, don't look for ingredients such as scallops, shrimp and a pesto sauce. It's all pretty easy if you think about things before you run to that grocery store. But, remember, if you do make a mistake, start over with a brand new recipe with a different set of ingredients.

Well folks, knowing who to vote for is just like cooking up a feast you can be proud of. And, it is apparent that too many of you haven't done that during the last 30 years or so. So, without putting my spin into your minds, I'll explain it again.

The political party is like the master chef. If you're looking for sensible taxes, free enterprise, lower taxes, and fewer social programs, don't look in the Democrat cookbook. The candidate is like the main ingredient. If he has no documented past, then how can you be sure of what he will be? Pork can be tenderloin, but can also be ham hocks. Stick with what you know is good. The candidate's background and promises are like the spices in a recipe. A Halfblack Muslim, with no experience, who promises to have free health care for all, but with lower premium rates, is like adding Jalapeno peppers to a seafood gumbo seasoned with Tabasco.

And finally, look at who is sponsoring the candidate. If Pelosi or Biden appear in your community to campaign for someone you've never heard of, or has no voting record, or no experience.....you can be rest assured that his views are exactly like those of his supporters.

Local elections seem to be the most difficult to make the correct choice because most of the candidates are unknown and have no real experience. But thin before you vote for an ex-con for Sheriff, a cop might be the better choice. The homeless shelter president running for your city council, or the public defender running for Judge? Perhaps your would consider their opponent.

Now, the most important thing to remember is, if once you have prepared your meal from the recipe you chose, and it gags you at first bite............spit it out!!! If they have lied about their campaign promises, or not represented your views, don't forgive them. Don't just keep trying to swallow the failures in the decisions you've made! If in doubt, vote them out!

Your wise vote will make a difference in just a few more days!
